ABSTRACT:
A handheld or pocketsized electronic apparatus, such as a mobile telephone, having a display unit and a touch surface that is position-sensitive in a first and second direction for control of the electronic apparatus; the display unit having a display area taking up most of the front side of the apparatus and the touch surface being sufficiently narrow to fit on the side edge of the apparatus and curved in the first direction to convex shape, thus making it simple for a user to control the apparatus with one hand, without the display being hidden, and in an ergonomically correct manner, whereby control of the apparatus is attained without the use of a keyboard or similar input device.
